Punter lands $100,000 bet at Flemington

A punter with Sportsbet has landed a massive $100,000 bet on a runner at Flemington today.

The Sportsbet.com.au punter placed a $100,000 place bet on Urban Ruler in the last on the card and the bet never looked in doubt despite Urban Ruler being run down in the final strides by Willi Willi.

Urban Ruler sat four deep around the turn and kicked clear in the straight and looked all out the winner until a late surge by Willi Willi saw the favourite get beat on the line but that was no issue for the punter who staked the bet on the place and collected $160,000.
